One partner lifts and holds the other, who wraps their legs around their waist. Dramatic and athletic, it calls for strength, balance and a wall close by.
How to do it
The lifting partner stands with knees slightly bent and back straight.
The other wraps their arms around their neck and their legs around their waist.
Lean the lifted partner's back against a wall, which takes most of the weight.
Tips
Never attempt it without a wall or a bed within reach.
Keep it short and switch positions before arms or backs start to complain.
One partner lies back with hips raised and legs over their head while the other squats above. Strenuous and only for the flexible, it is a brief adventure rather than a staple.
One partner supports themselves on their hands while the standing partner holds their legs at the hips. Acrobatic and challenging, it is best treated as a playful experiment.
One partner lies back with hips raised and supported by their own arms while the other kneels between their legs. Athletic and short, it rewards core strength.
